Imam Organization chief Omar Ilyasi has predicted the ‘homecoming’ of PoK. According to him, seeing the development in J&K after the removal of Article 370, the people of PoK want to join India. Now there is peace and progress in the valley instead of stone pelting.
Srinagar : Chief of All India Imam Organization Omar Ahmed Ilyasi was recently on a tour of Jammu and Kashmir. He was quite surprised to see the conditions here. During this time, he made a big prediction, on which debate has now erupted. Ilyasi claimed that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) is an integral part of India and the day is not far when PoK will ‘come home’ and join India.
PoK is part of India
Omar Ahmed Ilyasi said, “Most of the people living in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir want to join India. Seeing the development that has taken place in Jammu and Kashmir after the removal of Article 370, they are eager to join India. Life of the people in PoK is very difficult. India has now emerged as a strong country. Therefore, there will be a ‘homecoming’ soon.”
He further said, “There was a time when children and youth in Jammu and Kashmir used to indulge in stone pelting and protests. Riots, demonstrations and gunshots were heard every day in the valley. But after the removal of Article 370, there is peace in Kashmir. Children are focusing on studies and youth on their careers. Youth are doing great work in many fields. This is a huge change.”
India will not be deterred by Pahalgam attack
Ilyasi also mentioned the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. He said, “Jammu and Kashmir is developing rapidly and meanwhile a terrorist attack took place in Pahalgam, which increased the anxiety among the people and affected tourism. But India has given a befitting reply to this attack. Jammu and Kashmir is now safer than before. Now one can roam in Kashmir without any fear.”
He also said that investment is now coming into Jammu and Kashmir, due to which the youth here are getting employment and they are becoming economically strong. A lot of development is also taking place in the field of education. There is a world of difference between the earlier Kashmir and today’s Kashmir.
